As we have discussed in the past, care labeling is an important requirement for the fashion industry. Below you will find a few common questions regarding wash care label requirements regarding clothes.When do you need care labels on clothing?Domestic manufacturers must attach care labels to finished products before they sell them. Importers must ensure that care labels are attached to products before they sell them in the U.S., but care labels don't have to be attached to products when they enter the U.S. In other words, care labels must be on clothing before they are sold.How do you put care labels on clothing?

Attach labels so consumers can easily see or find them at the point of sale.

If packaging gets in the way, place additional care information on the outside of the package or on a hang-tag attached to the product.

A garment with two or more parts that is sold as a unit needs only one care label if the care instructions are the same for all parts. Attach the label to the major piece of the suit. If the suit pieces require different care instructions or — like coordinates — are designed to be sold separately, each item must have its own care label.What happens if a clothing company does not provide care instructions?

Failing to provide reliable care instructions and warnings for the useful life of an item is a violation of the FTC Act. Violators are subject to enforcement actions and penalties of up to $16,000 for each offense. In enforcement actions, the FTC contends that each mislabeled garment is a violation. Since 1990, the FTC has brought 16 enforcement actions; 15 were resolved by settlements and one was litigated. Penalties have ranged as high as $300,000. Violations are clearly costly.The above is subject to change. Please consult directly with the Federal Trade Commission for the most current requirements.Read about Care Labeling Facts for the apparel industry.Learn about care labeling requirements at the FTC website.

When it comes to girls with normal height, they will never understand the pain that tall girls have to take while shopping for clothes. Leave fashion, finding normal clothes sometimes becomes a bit tough. So knowing that we have come up with some clothing ideas that will help tall girls to look good.

Shop everythingOne of the best tips that I can give tall girls is to go and simply hit the tall section in the store. There are many stores that have a good collection for taller girls. In case you fail to get what you want, let me suggest you another option. Just go through the men’s section and I am sure, you will find some good fitting tees or jeans out there. Last option is to shop online. You are sure to find what you want there. You can check out the collection at Pink Boutique and get it at less by using Pink Boutique vouchers.Try out clothesIt is a good idea to always try clothes before you buy them. It helps to save time and money. If there is a clearance sale, try to buy a number of dresses as much as possible. These dresses will serve as your backup.

Neckline and shirt sleeves

Many of the tall women have broad shoulders too. In case you have broad shoulders, try out wearing shirts that complement your neck. Go for ‘V’ necks or deep neckline, as it will take away attention from the shoulders. When going for sleeves, go sleeveless or short or full length. Avoid wearing a dress with quarter length sleeves. Such sleeves will make you look adjusting in small size dresses.

Choose right pantsWhether it is full length or skinny or even straight, everything looks good on tall girls. The best option for tall girls is to go for high waist pants as they will make their torso look small. In case you want to show off your shape and length, then go for skinny jeans. Wide-legged pants are also a good option as they will complement your figure. Go for different lengthsIn case you are feeling to wear a skirt, go for knee length or mid-thigh ones. You can even try out a maxi dress. You will look proportionate in extra long skirts. Trying out maxi length skirts and dresses can be a good idea. Going for a ‘V’ cut dress which is knee length will help you to get a balanced frame and figure. Avoid wearing anything shorter than mid-thigh length. Showing some skin is okay, but make sure to do it in proportion. Go for flatsMany of you must be loving high heels. In case, you like them then wear it occasionally. Or else, go for flats as they will help you to get the desired look. So whether you love shoes or slip-ons, try something that is eye catchy.

With so many options here, you will be now thrilled to shop, right? But, money factor may drag you back. So now you can shop to your satisfaction simply by using the vouchers codes at Deals Lands. At that site the vouchers are absolutely free and easy to use.

So start shopping and update your wardrobe to look awesome and trendy.

Bella Heathcote was photographed wearing Fidelity Denim today in Vancouver, BC! The Fifty Shades Darker star made her way through the airport in her Belvedere Ginza Black jeans as she arrived to start working on the film ($188, www.fidelitydenim.com)

Below is a more clear image of the black jeans being worn by a fashion model.

Why would anyone want to buy fabric by the yard?
Well, if you don’t need an entire roll, it is much better to buy it by the
yard. When fabric is produced it is generally made in a significant quantity at
a time. That fabric is then rolled to form a bolt of fabric. Note: sample
yardage can be produced in smaller amounts but typical production it is best to
produce more fabric at one time for economies of scale (more fabric produced the
better efficiency and cost).

Keep in mind, just because you are purchasing by the yard, it
does not mean you have to buy only one yard at a time. This is simply a way to
measure the amount of fabric that you need and charge you accordingly. If for
example, you need 3 ½ yards of jersey knit to experiment on making a t-shirt,
you would have to purchase 4 yards of fabric. Yes, you will be left with an
additional half yard wasted, but that is the way the cookie crumbles. When
fabric is sold by the yard, you would have to purchase in yard
increments.

Here are a few resources to consider when purchasing fabric
by the yard for your clothing or accessory projects.

Fashion Fabrics Club: Buy a great
variety of fabric and fabrics by the yard at wholesale prices from our online
fabric store. Included are cotton, silk, linen, wool, blends, synthetics,
prints, knits, woven, bridal and special occasion and home decorating
fabric.

FabricGuru.com: The
first thing you need to know about them is that they love fabric. They are not
kidding when they say that. Like many of their customers, they consider
ourselves "fabriholics". So they understand what customers are looking for in a
fabric supplier, and they have worked very hard to make FabricGuru.com the
internet's leading fabric resource, and a place you will want to shop for all of
your fabric needs. They offer fabric sold by the yard. Price listed per yard.
Samples are available for $1.00 each shipping included. Samples ship via US
Postal Service.

Jo‑Ann Stores: Shop fabric online by
the yard. Jo-Ann's has the largest selection of fabric in unique prints and
materials. Find fabrics for quilting, upholstering, decorating and
apparel.

In addition to the above mentions resources you should also
keep in mind large companies such as Walmart and Ebay. As a matter of fact, you
can probably also find solutions on Amazon. Walmart Fabric by
the Yard: yes, Walmart sells fabric by the yard. Ebay Fabric by the Yard:
even auction companies such as Ebay sells apparel fabrics by the
yard.

A bolt is a unit of measurement used as an industry standard
for a variety of materials from wood to canvas, typically materials stored in a
roll. The length is usually either 40 or 100 yards, but varies depending on the
fabric being referred to, for example, a bolt of canvas is traditionally 39
yards. You really would need to consult with the fabric mill regarding the
yardage on the bolt before you make your purchase. You should also check on the
width of the fabric. Some fabric is made more narrow than other fabrics. The
width of the fabric will affect your fabric
utilization if you are planning to produce clothes based on a specific
pattern. Learn more about bolts of fabric.

Luxury retailers continue to push forward with new store
openings. This Neiman Marcus at the Roosevelt Field Mall spans two floors and
includes 32 vendor shops, a cosmetics spa and personal shopping
areas.

Iconix Brand Group has had several important news reports
during the past few months. They were investigated by the SEC, created a
short-term shareholder rights plan, took steps toward a conclusion with SEC, and
appointed a new president and member of the board. Sure seems like a bumpy road
an plenty of significant issues unrelated to marketing fashion brands.
Hopefully they will now be able to turn their attentions back to the apparel
industry and consumers of fashion.

Feb. 23, 2016: The Board of Directors of Iconix Brand
Group, Inc. announced that John N. Haugh has been appointed President and a
member of the Board of Directors effective February 23, 2016. Mr. Haugh
will become Chief Executive Officer of Iconix on April 1, 2016. At that time,
Interim CEO Peter Cuneo will transition to Executive Chairman of the Iconix
Board. Mr. Haugh is a proven executive with more than 30 years of experience
leading premier global brands and retail businesses at highly respected
companies, including Luxottica S.p.A., Build-A-Bear Workshop, Inc. and Mars,
Inc. In his role as President of Sun, Luxury and Retail Services for Luxottica
Retail, N.A., he led more than 14,000 Sunglass Hut associates; managed the
Luxottica and Macy's, Inc. license operations business; directed the luxury
optical business; and managed real estate, design and construction for Luxottica
Retail, N.A.

Feb. 18, 2016: Iconix Brand Group, Inc. announced that
it will restate historical financial statements based on the Company's
conclusions related to the accounting treatment applied to certain
transactions in connection with the previously disclosed comment letter process
with the Staff of U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Staff").
The Company has responded to the Staff with a Confirming Letter on all of the
questions the Staff has raised. The Company also reaffirmed its guidance for
2015 licensing revenue, non-GAAP diluted EPS and free cash flow. Due to the
restatements, the Company anticipates filing its Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2015, and reporting fourth quarter and full year 2015 financial
results by, the extended filing date of March 15, 2016. Please refer to the
Form 8-K filed February 18, 2016 for additional details on the restatement,
including tables detailing the estimated adjustments. Peter Cuneo, Chairman and
Interim CEO, commented "As we have stated in the past, the comment letter
process was related to highly technical accounting standards and while we are
disappointed to have to restate our financial statements, as we expected, there
will be no impact on free cash flow. Moving forward we are highly focused on
positioning Iconix for long term success and are pleased to announce that our
core operating business is on track to achieve our 2015 and 2016 projections. We
also remain on track with our financing plans and expect to be in the position
to refinance our convertible notes that mature in June 2016."

Jan. 27, 2016 Iconix Brand Group, Inc. announced that
its Board of Directors has adopted a short-term shareholder rights plan
(the "Rights Plan"), which will expire following the 2016 annual meeting of
shareholders, absent an extension being approved by shareholders. The Board
adopted the Rights Plan in light of recent activity in the Company's shares,
including the recent accumulation of meaningful positions by holders of
derivative securities, and what the Iconix Board and management believes is a
currently depressed share price for the Company's common stock. They pointed
out that the Rights Plan is similar to plans adopted by numerous publicly-traded
companies and was not adopted in response to any specific takeover bid or other
proposal to acquire control of the Company.

Dec. 28, 2015: Iconix Brand Group, Inc. announced that
the Company received a formal order of investigation from the Staff of the
SEC. The Company intends to fully cooperate with the SEC. As previously
disclosed, the Company is currently in a comment letter process with the Staff
of the SEC related to the accounting treatment for the formation of certain
joint ventures. Additionally, the Company formed a Special Committee of the
Board of Directors to conduct a review of the accounting treatment related to
certain of the Company's transactions. As announced in a Form 8-K filed on
November 5, 2015, the Company's current management team determined, based in
part on the Special Committee's review, that the Company would restate its
historical financial statements in respect of (i) the 2013 fiscal year and the
fourth quarter thereof, (ii) the 2014 fiscal year and each quarterly period
thereof and (iii) the first and second quarters of 2015, to correct certain
errors in accounting. The Company completed these restatements, which were filed
at the end of November 2015.
